Hey all. I set up a system (with no intent to overclock - that has changed now!)
p2.6c
MSI Neo2 Fis2r
512 mb Corsair PC3200 Value Select (1 stick)
SATA WD360 Raptor
ATI 9600 Pro
Antec 350W power supply
I can't get the board to go over 250 mhz fsb. I changed the RAM to DDR 333 but I made no adjustments to any voltages.
Anyone have any ideas as to what I should do? I'm not sure if the board simply won't go over the 250mhz or if - being new to the oc game - I'm not doing something right. It's bios v 1.5. Has anyone been able to go higher than 250mhz?
As a result of this limit I've been thinking about switching to the Asus P4P800....
Also since I'm new to this could anyone shed light on whether or not my components will be losing lifespan at a certain point of oc'ing? From most people that I've talked with they say that as long as it's running stable the components are fine and don't really lose much lifespan.
Thanks for taking the time to read all this. I really appreciate any advice!
